Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Conditions
Brief summary
This is a multicenter, open-label, paired control study to evaluate the safety and clinical efficacy of allogeneic NK cells combined with targeted drug in the treatment for advanced HCC.
Detailed description
Since killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) mismatch can inhibit the negative regulatory signal of autologous major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules and ensure sufficient NK cell activation, allogeneic NK cells therapy, as a potential therapeutic option for tumor, has achieved good results in patients with acute myeloid leukemia. In this study, investigators evaluate the safety and efficacy of allogeneic NK cells in the treatment of advanced HCC. 200 patients from three hospitals will be enrolled in this study and followed up for 1 year. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated from patient-related donor and cultured in vitro for 15 days and infused to the patient in two consecutive days. Clinical data and laboratory data were collected and analyzed, including survival, impact indicators, hematology, biochemical indicators, and immunological indicators to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the treatment.
Interventions
PBMC was isolated from the peripheral blood of the donors and infused to the patient after 14 days incubation. In each cycle, patients will be infused 4.0-5.0×10'9 allogeneic NK cells. All patients in the experimental group received a total of three cycles of treatment with one month interval between each treatment.

Exclusion criteria
* Women who are pregnant or breast-feeding. * Co-infected with hepatitis A, hepatitis E, AIDS or other infectious diseases. * Patients with serious complications such as acute infection and gastrointestinal bleeding within 30 days. * Patients with other serious systemic and psychiatric diseases. * Exposure to any cell therapy such as, but not limited to CIK, DC, CTL , PD-1 and stem cells therapy 6 months prior to study drug administration. * Other conditions that researchers believe may increase the risk of subjects or lead to affected study results, such as the presence of mental illness in subjects.
